Heathers: The Musical

The shoulder pads are back and they are sharper than a midtown subway turnstile. Heathers: The Musical is currently haunting New World Stages, and if you have any sense, you will try for the Heathers: The Musical lottery before paying full price. Dealing with the theater industry’s pricing for Heathers: The Musical Broadway tickets is a headache we all know too well, so skip the box office line and head over to our Broadway lottery hub.

Veronica Sawyer is just trying to survive Westerberg High without losing her soul to the local mean girls. It is a familiar suburban nightmare, only this time it involves a trench-coat-wearing sociopath named J.D. and a body count that rises faster than an L train delay. The pop-rock score hits hard, even if the premise feels like a fever dream from 1989. It captures the specific, toxic rot of high school status games with enough dark comedy to make the carnage go down easy. If you can handle the cynicism, the show delivers a solid punch. Just leave your nostalgia at the door and try not to get caught in the hallway crossfire.
